I met Bas while he was commentating a PFL fight in 2018. He was so nice and humble and took a picture with me. A super nice guy and a great CHAMPION!!!
you'll find the best fighters.. are the one's you dont see fight a lot :-\.... sent a couple bully's to the hospital because they tested the fact. the bloody police told them my legsa were registed as lethal... geez what idiots,,, I could push over 200 pounds a leg... I weighed 120 lol.. lil kick here kick there ooops sorry.. no really I'm sory I broke your sturnumans 4 ribs with it LOL they started it..
Me too
If anyone doesnt know, Bas has his ENTIRE Pancrase career on CZcams for FREE with his commentary on every single fight. One of my favorite things on CZcams, and it really highlights how high level and unique Pancrase actually was. Also, Bas is hilarious, and him commentating his own fights (especially the losses) is nothing short of straight comedy
What even is Pancrase though?? Ive seen it before but having a closer look at it, I can only boil it down to being the real full physical contact version of WWE except no punches, just slaps and kicks.... Like wtf even is that... Like why???
@Epikus 2.0 Fists to the face was and is prohibited in Pancrese. Thats why it not turned especially popular.
These fights are like kumate the real deal for sure
That's awesome!! I might check it out
4WOF Thanks! I'll check it out.
Bas was no joke and proved himself in the UFC as well..one of the true greats and legends of MMA.
UFC means not much
@wrongfootmcgee9993 that’s your opinion..
@@wrongfootmcgee UFC means the best organization in the history of the sport
😊
Man if you can smash a man with a palm strike and knock him smooth out now that's dangerous!!
So much impressed with Bas and these Pancrase fighters! Some of the scariest fighters yet they never forget to respect each other. Respect! Kudos!
The fact that Japanese fighter got up after the first shot is unreal. The pain he fought through is insane.
In what way do you feel 'the pain was insane' ?
@@erepsekahs newb
But the blood his was pissin for the next year was all too real.
@erepsekahs a liver blow is one of the most effective blows at debilitating and flat out shutting your opponent down.
Fighting through not one, not two, but three liver kicks(and punches) would be like gettin gut shot then standin up to fight.
@@erepsekahs If you have ever felt the unfortunate pain of being hit in the liver you would agree that the pain is insane. It has a delay to it.. You take the shot and about 3 seconds later your liver seizes up on you...If you put a gun to my head and gave me the choice to be hit in the liver or the nuts I would have a hard time deciding lol.
Man's destroyed more livers than whisky
That was a good one 👍
Lol
Haha...

Best comment I have ever heard. 😆 🤣
I have seen most of these fights but did not realize how brutal they are. The toughness of these guys is superhuman.
Rutten is and was one tough cookie, his endurance was phenomenal. He tolerance for pain was incredible, the man had the heart of a lion, a true champion of all champions.
And he's also bigger and taller than 98% of the people he's defeated. Pretty much like Jon Jones situation: already very gifted but he's also blessed with OUTLIER physical attributes that put 99.9% of all others at a disadvantage. Not sure how great that is, on a per unit, per capita basis... compared to someone very small like Demetrius Johnson who's almost always fighting as the smaller guy, even if his opponents also are elite...
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 Jones is far larger than Bas, and Bas isn't as much of a weight bully as you're making him sound. All but 2-3 of Bas' opponents were within 3-4 inches of height of him--in several cases having Bas as the *smaller* fighter--which is entirely normal for any weight class/organization, and lots of people were gasheads at the time.
""FightMetric, the official statistics provider for the UFC, ran the numbers on Rutten’s career. They back up the Dutchman’s inclusion into the UFC Hall of Fame and then some. In the 4-hours, 27-minutes and 8-seconds he spent as a pro fighter, Rutten scored 13 knockdowns without getting dropped himself, his significant strike accuracy was 70.6%, the highest FightMetric has ever recorded, attempted a record 53 submissions and successfully swept his opponents a record 46 times." "
You don't get these stats from simply being tall or heavy. Jon Jones is a genuinely towering human being, at 6'4 and a freakish 84 inch wingspan, his natural benefits are far beyond Bas'. I'd also like to note that Bas fought at the same weight classes as Jones, where Bas was notably smaller than Jon. In today's sport, Bas' height is literally seen on fucking welterweights. Bas being 6'1 at Light Heavyweight/Heavyweight is actually very modest now. In today's sport, Bas' body would land him in Middleweight.
Your characterization is simply not historically true, and doesn't account for Bas' incredible stats and abilities.
Putting that aside, I agree that Mighty Mouse is incredible, and he can't be appreciated enough. Additionally, I think weight bullying (and therefore weight cutting) is one of the dumbest parts of this sport, and should be fucking banned. Lastly, I think having reach and height caps on weight classes would force the sport to have far more fairness, honour, and lead to much better health standards for the athletes. A sport built on unfair advantages is hardly sportsmen-like.
Just seeing him do those jumps after his wins shows his incredible athleticism.
I can beat cookies ;)
Bas Rutten is an absolute legend. One of the best fighters ever. One of the most elite strikers in MMA history. One of my favorite fighters of all time.
I agree Bas is elevated the best fighter to this day I
f I had a #2. it is Manny Pacquiao
Man this is so much better than modern mma
I don't get how a fighter with so many miles like Rutten can now, after his career being over, be so normal. He speaks really well with no signs of head concussion and is smart when talking to anyone. Rutten is certainly a legend in so many ways.
His opponents took more of a beating than he did. :)
MMA, especially back in the bare knuckle days, in the end is safer than boxing, Kick boxing and MT. The Boxing gloves are not designed to protect the fighters head, they are designed to protect the fighters hands. With padded gloves you can throw hard punches without worry of breaking your hand, in bare knuckle you have to be selective and take the power off. Yes, bare knuckle, and 4 oz MMA gloves cause more cuts and blood, but the brain damage is minimized. With MMA you also have more brain safe ways to lose, submissions, even chokes cause no damage to the brain if the ref is doing his job, you just lose track of time lol.
@@andrewwood9067 I don't think that's it. You might have an iffy point that a boxer does not need to be concerned about hurting his hand. But then again I remained unconvinced that MMA fighters are concerned with the hand injury so much that they would willingly tone down their punches.
Also, you're wrong about the potential brain injury: Padded gloves will hit you with less force. Your head and brain will accelerate more gradually than if the exactly same punch was delivered w/o padding.
Boxers are more proficient with punches than mma fighters and their volume is higher so that might even out or tip the odds of traumatic brain injury.
The main risk comes from uneven pairing (skill, weight) like we saw in the early UFC days.
@@bosnbruce5837 I did both boxing and mma and am now a striking coach. I'm not only speaking from experience but many scientific studies have been done to support it. I do agree that mismatches are the most damaging however
Rutten never really got his head pounded out.
I'm 79 years old and Bas Rutten is the best of the best. I use to get so excited at times I thought I was going to have an heart-attack.
Haha
Bas, was and is still one of the greatest lethal fighters ever ! He was far ahead of his time . I take my hat off to Bas, I was a Taekwondo champion, and was headed in his footsteps, until Multiple Sclerosis ended my career .
Sorry to hear about your MS.😪
Keep fighting the good fight. Stay strong and stay positive.
Sorry to hear that bro. Hard autoimmune diseases can disrupt our lives. I'm struggling with Lupis myself. I feel like I disintegrating as time goes by. I hope you are dealing with yours as best you can.
That sucks keep on keeping on and best of luck
Ésas peleas de Bas,se peleaban sin guantes de protección??? Eran a puño limpio las peleas???
Bas just has that bad ass look to him. Not taking anything away from his fighting skills, cause Bas IS a bad ass. Always one of my favorites. His striking was vicious. Anyone going toe to toe with him I'm sure was regretting that decision after taking the first open palm strike. Thanks for putting this clip together . Bas deserves all the notoriety given. One of the greatest of all time for sure.
he got a sense of humour as well
He’s got that “tough, ol deddy who just wants to be left alone and have a good time” and mix that with “I’ll make sure that we DO have a fun time and no problems” attitude.
Badass.
Like Nappa from Dragon Ball
Бас Руттен- легенда на все времена! Уникальная техника, потрясающая скорость рук и ног, порог болевой отсутствует начисто! Можно только представить о времени, проводимом Басом в тренировочных залах! КРАСАВЕЦ! Неподражаемый!!!
Maaan, Bas Rutten was soo bad ass in his prime. That was one tough dude. And that right leg kick was devastating
Pretty darn impressive how athletic he was for his size
The pancreatic fighting style is absolutely the bomb. Wow, those fighters were/ are tough. Bas Rutten is definitely one of the best fighters ever.
Bas Rutten is the LEGEND of them times I still watch the old fights and never get bored with them
The most extreme tough guy I have ever witnessed, just unbeatable.
Yeah he was unbeatable. Besides all the times he was beaten of course. Those losses don't count.
Le combattant le plus complet…
He wasn't unbeatable because he got beat more than once.
except Ken beat him 3 times in Pancrase lololol
@@davidwright4361 You have to learn what unbeatable means, and I don't think it means what you think it means.
Pancrase was great 👍 very cutting edge for the time. And much respect to Bas Rutten. My goodness what precision on his striking 🫢👍
Bas was funny as hell in The King of Queens and Kevin can wait alongside Kevin James. 😆
When I watch UFC etc., I get the feeling that this looks like professional wrestling.
Wow. We need him today! He would keep the fight as "a fight", rather than cuddling on the floor!
Then you would enjoy the Shamrock brothers, Ken & Frank. Ken defeated Bas Twice, both times by submission. Frank won by decision. And as above he received a devastating KO at the hands Frank Lobman. Six losses in total.
Anyone who says submissions are cuddling is someone who has absolutely no clue what they are talking about.
Its your ignorance in the matter that makes a fight look like 'cuddling' to you. It's like people saying chess is boring when they don't know how to play it.
Go watch boxing or muay thai fights
Dude you have no idea how crucial jiu jitsu and wrestling are in a fight. Evenly matched fights ALWAYS go to the ground. What you refer to as “cuddling” is an art you can’t even comprehend, and is just as (and arguably MORE) valuable than being a good striker. Learn a little. Then it won’t look like cuddling. You’ll understand what artful combat it actually is.
You homos just like seeing wet men all over each other! :-)
Those palm heel blows ...knock you senseless...amazing serious skills.
Thanks a lot for this fantastic video! It allowed me to really understand Bas Ritter’s skills and perseverance! What a tough man!
Those kicks and doing the splits in the air…. The real life Jean Claude van Damn!!!
Van Dam & his "B" movies. He'd never stand a chance against Bas. Not even 1 round.
I think that's why Bas would be the real thing
Bas is a great example of a guy who took his chance as far as he could. Great fighter, great person. I endorse him any chance I get.
That last fight was amazing! Such honor and brutality
This is so great!!! Thanks for posting it!!! When I first started watching UFC it wasn’t on television we had to rent tapes. When UFC and PRIDE started being shown on television regularly Bas was already doing mainly commentary and I always wanted to see him fight. A couple of years ago I found a compilation much like this but a lot of the footage was really grainy and old. This is just done so well and definitely shows him for the brutal fighter that I heard so much about.
What a MAN! I am not an expert in martial fights but his fighting looks to me to be very clean. His strength, his speed and precision are unbelievable!
バス・ルッテン、高速の鋭い攻撃をする選手ですよね👊凄く好きです❤
After just 2 fights and in the Hall of Fame. I don't think anyone in any Sport has ever achieved that.
He’s in the top 5 of all time. I’m glad when I see he has a cameo in a movie. He’s absolutely brutal, and changed how fighters have to fight. Love him!
Bas used to post to youtube, his channel should still be there and on his channel he breaks down pretty much every fight he had (that he could show footage of). It's so good to watch and to listen to, you learn a lot about his state of mind back then and everything.
Always loved his style...
Best fighter of all times because best style of all times,no mytho-jitsu or martial circus,just full rage and efficiency.
Warrior style,as close of street fight as it could be possible...
I'd love to see Bas taking part in this slap fights, think he'd be unstoppable
He really channeled his inner David Lee Roth in the after fight celebration!
🤘
What a fighter, what a heart, Bas you a real inspiration to me as a martial artist.
Tbh, this was the first time I've seen or heard of Bas Rutten but I can truly say he was a great champion 🏆
He pretty much learned everything himself. Just imagine if he started today with a good camp on his back. He would be champ in no time.
чему он научился трюкам ?Для этого варианта реслинга 😏
Maradona is unique, Messi already is a world soccer champion... No one is like Pelé. Bas was 20 years ahead of his time. Today everything is worked through videos and Camps as you've said. Before was genuine, now is worked and well trained. Except to Fedor, but at the end was catch in the web by Fabrizio
He was in his time too
@@user-wj5gf6bc5f
👍☝️🥳
AMAZING video!! Thank you.
Bas was a straight savage & stayed the champion in Pancreas & then went to the UFC & became the champion there as well, showing everyone that he wasn’t just hype he was for real 💯
Never watched this type of fighting before. Unbelievably ruthless and violent to say the least! These guys are amazing!
It is ruthless and violent but I personally enjoy this fight style as well as technical fights. These bouts take technical skill but brutality is massive. These men know and agree to give and take punishment.
Those open palm strikes are something
Fighter are truly intimidating like Tyson and Bas here. You just have to hear their name and you know how scary it could be to face them. I don't want to be hit by either thank you.
Bloody entertaining . Bass is so bloody strong but kept the fights professional . I don't detect any boasting from him . He is a true sportsman . He had lots of courage . Brutal force this man . I enjoyed all these fights ❤❤❤Well done my man.
Is this K1...????
Those fights were BRUTAL..!!!!!
With soccer kicking/Stomping to the head...😨😱😥🤯
It's SO AWESOME to watch as well as BRUTALITY 💯%
😲👍
Made us Europeans proud ! Thank you Bas !!!!!
People need to remember this man in the GOAT conversations
What a beast Bas Rutten was, A Spectacular Fighter
He never goes for an extra shot and always pulls back when his opponent is whacked
A good man
The most respectful monster of all time
A total badass ,much respect !!
Always loved mixed martial arts and did tons of it going through highschool and even in the army. Grew up with the motto that my dad used “if you ain’t Dutch you ain’t much.”
Never heard about Bas Rutten, but now i am a big Fan of him. What a great fighter with a cool stance.
A real living legend. Thanks for sharing.
Bas is possibly the greatest. Ever since I had dreams of street fighter and UFC, in the magic time when it happened, he was the best, along with my favorite characters because he was doing it for real.
He's a living legend. He's gone from the boing, boing, to the breath, breath, between his bar fighting tapes and the super saiyan breathing devices he sells, but that dude will take this entire comment section out in one single areal areal split if he had to.
Much love for Bas Rutten.
An absolute animal in the ring/cage. But probably one of my top 5 people to hangout with if i had option.
Meanwhile Minoru is still loved by the world over, still wrestling, still feared. People have forgotten about Bas. There should be more videos like this show people who Bas was and what he could do.
Bas was one of the first Karate guys to win a title in the UFC. This man is a combat legend.
Nerd 🤓
@@darrenbiddle5233 You're a nerd?
Karate is bullshido, they learn all the ridiculous forms. And all end up fighting like kick boxers. They can't use a single block or any deadly move from the comical forms...lol
GSP also came from karate. Two legends
@@dagaffer2269 you're kidding, right? kickboxing, as we know it, evolved from point karate. And there are many fighters that have a heavy karate background that transitioned into both kickboxing and MMA with lots of success.
I met bas in hollywood fl at a bar by myself about 16 years ago when i was 21. Im so mad I didnt know who he was then. he drank with me and showed me how he "danced" and it was a bunch of crazy fighting moves i was like wtf. If only i knew, glad i didnt start a fight with him I would have died lol
That's the right way! Stand up and fight like a man!
Did you ever have to fight someone out on the street? Did you give him a big hug, and lay him upon the ground and spoon?
Bas was a beast!
Beautiful just simply beautiful Bas Rutten is a true legend. Obviously the record shows it is second to none and is truly the best champion of all.
My favorite of all time, I still do not know why modern fighters do not use his techniques open hand striking
🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨Un gran campeón nadie lo duda su técnica única lo sorprendente es que sabe cómo salir de las llaves , los rivales duros y fueron campeones, además un gran caballero .
Bas Rutten was called a cyborg for his strength and painlessness in Pancrase. I don't remember who he fought against, but he won and the ring doctor was called and he was taken to the hospital on a stretcher, expressionless. In fact, it turns out that his leg was broken in the middle of the fight. In a martial arts magazine at the time, a reporter wrote that he looked like a cyborg.
Great that you showed this! Had not ever seen Bas fight! Amazing Champion fighter! thanks!
The respect he has when a person go's down.. Never a rat punch when people go down..
Hands down the best Palm striker in combat sport history
Merci pour le montage Vidéo incroyable Rutten Véritable légende vivante du combat pure technique de défense personnelle incroyable
Once again, you guys make another great video. You guys make consistently good video and cover the most important parts of the topic you're covering. Great video as always!
Bas was and always will be the best real fighter to ever lift a foot into the ring me. The man has level of meanness and toughnews that may never be matched .
BAS IS THE MAN.
Bas=legend
he is are hero no one in this world fight like him absolutely besr of best fighter
この頃のパンクラスは本当に面白かった
格闘技してた
Does pancrase still exist? It looks super exciting!
Another TWOB classic! This channel never misses. Much like Bas Rutten.
BAS IS ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREATS..!!!
A true pioneer of MMA, and His color commentary in Pride FC was Legendary..!
I used to know Bas years ago when his studio was in Beverly Hills. But I haven't seen him in years. He is one of the funniest guys I have ever known. But also has the meanest kick I have ever seen. OMG.
He is a warrior period
Bas knew to strike his opponent at the EXACT MOMENT he was exhaling?!?!?
THAT is a man with an AMAZING fight IQ!!!
You should strike as they are inhaling, not exhaling.
@@theunfazed7109 Not true. Because if you strike them while they inhale, they still have an oxygen supply. After your opponent has exhaled? He has NONE!!!! And that shit's gotta SUCK!!!
@@wariokhabib245 Hit yourself in the solar plexus as you are exhaling. Then, hit yourself in the solar plexus while you INHALE. Tell me which causes more pain friend. Breathing out while you get hit gives you more resistance to the impact.
Bas is a respectful, honorable, and classy guy!
18:00 - that ref is absolutely brilliant.
Well done lad! He saw it before it became worrying and called it just as it became undeniably a submission.
Wonderful awareness.
Extremely good.
Ken Shamrock , Bas Rutten , Tito Ortiz , Chuck Lidell , Vanderlei Silva , Fedor Emelianenko , ...... Real Legend s Hall of Famer s . Great Fighter s .
Fedor Bas Shamrock
Dan severan, Don Frye. Kevin Randleman, Marc Coleman, Mark Kerr, fuck it..Johnny Lawrence too
what a savage. This man was beaten and fighting as child. real warrior. didnt stopping.
He was like a tidal wave. You can’t stop that.
Bas is a legend
This was a great display of targeted liver strikes and shows just how powerful a palm wrist strike can be. Bas put on a clinic.
Bas Rutten and Livers is like Peanut Butter and Jelly, Cowboys and Revolvers and Misfortune and Orphans.
That dude is a beast!!!!!!!!!!. This is an awesome video. I'm going to watch more of him.
One of the greatest in combat sports
Bruno JM.
Yeah, they don't have to use their brain - otherwise they will be dangerous!
Bas is a true pioneer of the sport and would've ended most of his fights a lot sooner with today's MMA closed first strikes
Definitely my favorite fighter! His vision and strategies are unmatched and he really improved after every fight from kick boxing to ground fighting. And moreover, he is a really funny man!
How did some of these fighters get up after those vicious assaults from Bas? Truly amazing
Powerful
What about those liver kicks that dude took at the beginning of the clip, mate they were with the toe of the boot
@@Antipodean33 intense!
The dutch fighting scene is incredible. Schilt, Overeem, Musasi, Mr Perfect aka Hoost and last but not least Bas Rutten. All these among many others.
Don't forget "The diamond" Ramon Dekkers and "The lumberjack" Peter Aerts .... We've got many great fighters and champions in almost all variety of combat sports!!
Bas was one the greatest pioneers of the sport, he's a true Badass!
By far my favorite mma fighter…love his acting too. He is hilarious…makes me want to have a beer with him…
Boss Rutten!
